I think I might finally have the balanced team I've been trying to build all season depending on Dez staying healthy, and if Doyle keeps getting looks. So glad I was finally able to snag a TE.
But my god, Davante Adams went for $40 in GJL3

In my keeper league he just went for $88. Madness.

What the hell.... I couldn't believe he even went for $20 in ours

Sure, but it's also people taking a huge gamble that the Packers will continue to succeed with that offense. I mean Davante hasn't even had two consecutive good games yet, James Starks could be back soon, the police may finally discover where Jordy Nelson is hiding out, etc. It's a lot to bet on for one week.

The ink is still drying on the second trade accepted in GJL2. Think I'm giving up quite a bit but I like getting the best player in a 2-for-1. Sending Tyrell Williams and Devante Booker away for Jarvis Landry. And I'm playing my trade partner this week! Hope I don't lose the week at the hands of my old players.
Edit: Just heard that CJ Anderson is being evaluated for a knee injury. Booker's value went up quick. Yikes..

Lacy and now Anderson. Gah. Thankfully I won the bid for Asiata. McKinnon looked like he was about to die out there this past week so hopefully Asiata gets more snaps.

Gurley, Hyde, and Ajayi all on bye for me this week. That's some poor planning.
Will post current standings tonight.

WEEK 8 STANDINGS
Interesting that Gaming division is better in every league. For GJL2, if the playoffs started this week, there would be 5 teams from Gaming and 1 from Off-Topic.
Cappa opened up that pocket book this week, and spent all his FAAB money. GJLP and GJL2 have been far more conversative than GJL3 with their FAAB money so far.

Yooooo WTF??? It's Week 8!! Was he the one that blew all of that $$$ on Adams?
And looking for the win this week so that I can pull away from the rest of Off-Topic! It's way too freaking close in this division: one loss is differentiating 10th and 2nd place on our side...

Blake Bortles is the worst QB in the league. Gave up watching that crap pretty quick. Why are NFL ratings down? Blake Bortles is pathetic to watch. I have better shit to be doing than watch that crap dude play.

Well my Wright plug in seemed to work in my favor.
Off to a good start. Trying to avenge my singular blemish of the season!

Dropped him in my other league for Jameis. Worst part is watching Allen Robinson struggle along with him.

I feel your pain. Traded for AR15 and Charles this year....
Charles and Lacy were my big ones.

Member
Ouch, that's even worse... You still trying to trade to make up for them, or gonna stop the bleeding?
Dunno. My team right now is Brady, Gordon/Murray, Jones Jr/Benjamin/Cooper. Kelce. I have Hunter Henry, Derrick Carr, and Ty Montgomery as well. I traded away my running backs for potential upgrades and it hasn't killed me but if Murray/Gordon get hurt and Charles doesn't get back on the field in a meaningful capacity I'm gonna be in trouble.

Yeah I'm right there with you RB wise, except with DJ and Ware

My assumptions were right. McKinnon is beat up and not playing. Asiata to start. Finally some good RB news for my team.

Late scratch on Ty has put me in a pretty bad spot needing a win and being in a tight game.

7 freaking weeks of waiting, and Eifert finally comes back to form and shows why he's a pro bowler. My Brees/Luck conundrum turned out to not even matter either, although I lost out on points due to choosing Luck. Also glad I was able to pick up Kelley: with Jones out he would've obviously been a decent RB2 this week

Unless the DEN-SD game blows up, I'm looking at a win this week with only 79.60 pts scored. Say what you will, my fantasy team plays great defense.

Now THAT was a game to attend! My ears and voice hurts from just being at that game, so I can only imagine being at a Seahawks game...

Hmm... Looking at the rankings after this week in the Premier league (pretty much every game except BT vs Putin is essentially done), and things are gonna be CLOSE. Every team is either 3-5, 4-4 or 5-3, so literally everyone has a good chance of making the playoffs AND a good chance of being demoted. Erasure and I should still lead our respective divisions due to Division record and Points For, but it definitely is closer than before (especially with a possible 4-way tie for the Division lead on the Gaming side if Putin wins)... The timing couldn't have been more perfect either, with every game from now on being a Divisional match up....
And just as a heads up: trade deadline is next Saturday! Now's the time to evaluate your team and determine if there are any moves you need to make to fill in those weaknesses! Benches won't help you win it all after a certain point, so if you have insane depth at a position, may wanna work on trading it away for some front line help at another position soon!

Thanks for pointing out the trade deadline is soon.
Survived a couple injury scares and three RBs on bye to move to 6-2 on the year. Definitely still in 2nd place at worst, but might slide into 1st depending on how the game goes tonight.

Depends if you're selling Brady lol
I guess I will just roll with Dalton for now. This week is gonna suck though.

Off-Topic strikes back in GJL2. Every single team in the division won. League just got that more competitive.

Awesome... Charles is now on IR! This should be a fun week

No player is immune to the right offer.
Edit: two players I traded for end up on IR. Not good.

Sure, but I don't have the right offer. I guess Dmart is now cheap? :-/
We're pretty much in the final month of the season. Next Saturday is the trade deadline and there's 5 matches left until the playoffs. Here's where everyone stands, I'll be updating it weekly.
Seedings in order.
GJLP:
In the playoffs:
In the hunt:
Long Shot:
Eliminated:
Notes: The most heated league as every team has a realistic chance to make or miss the playoffs. 5 of the 6 playoffs teams have 5-3 records while many of the 3-5 teams have better Points For than most of the 5-3 teams and all of the 3-5 teams have better Points For than the 4-4 teams. This league can easily go any way.
GJL2:
In the playoffs:
In the hunt:
Long Shot:
Eliminated:
Notes: The number 2 team (GJLP Bound) has a 10 point differential between Points For and Against. It just goes to show how strange fantasy can be as the number 5 team (Rudakus's Team) has the highest Points For in the league (952, 42 points higher than Bound) while having 815 Points Against (85 less than Bound) while boasting a 3-5 record.
GJL3:
Sleepy so I'll do GJL3 in the morning.

Woooo! It's a great feeling being in a competitive league! Even last year we had a few AFK members in the Premier league, and I even have some AFK players in a 16 man money league.

I like that there's more talk between the leagues this season. It helps that "the dude" posts the standings each week in the thread.
